Applying Intermediary Grades to Shots

Apply intermediary grades to your shots when you want to experiment with different looks. You can apply intermediary grades to one or multiple shots in the Storyboard. You can control which saved settings you want to apply— all the settings from the intermediary grade, only those selected in the Selector, or only those in the current menu.

To load intermediary grades from a Grade bin:

1. In the Storyboard, select the shots to which you want to apply an intermediary grade.
   TipYou can select multiple shots by right-clicking them in the Storyboard. You can also create groups of shots. See Selecting Shots in the Storyboard and Creating Shot Groups.
2. Select the Grade bin you want to use.
